Could someone take a  look at the 51J-4 advertised here and perhaps answer a 
question for  me?

The faceplate doesn't appear to have any  lettering for the bandwidth 
position.  Could this be a 51J-4 with a  51J-3 faceplate (or are there other 
differences that would make this  improbable)?
Just curious.
Thanks,

Hi  barry,
Looks like it could be two possibilities. Someone put an R-388  faceplate on 
a 51J-4 or someone could have added a mechanical filter conversion  kit to an 
R-388, then added a 51J-4 name tag. I don't think the other R-388 on  eBay 
with the 51J-4 front panel is related, they are located in different parts  of 
the country. 

Hey someone could buy both, swap front panels and be all  set!
